Have a look at the [getting started](getting_started) page for first steps.


Labs OMD contains a huge list of [packages](packages), a best-of from the Nagios and Prometheus ecosystems.

## The Idea

The main idea is to make the initial installation easy and less time consuming while providing a stable and standarized platform for further activities. A nagios system without addons and plugins is mostly useless, so OMD provides a way of making the initial setup fast and painless.

OMD-Labs goes a bit further and adds even more useful software. See the [differences page](differences) for a full list

## The real life

## The Site Concept

OMD comes with a site concept solution with makes it possible to create and run multiple instances of OMD on one server. Sites can be renamed, copied and managed independantly.

## Roadmap

There is usually one stable release every 6 months. Every day there are nightly builds with the [latest changes](https://github.com/ConSol-Monitoring/omd/blob/labs/Changelog).

Since OMD itself is rather complete, upcoming releases mostly update the shipped
components. There are no planned changes for OMD itself.
